What is wrong is they oth clubs ] do not promote the game in the schools [ they do bits].
Where are the school teams at Beverley,Brough,Driffield,Goole,Hornsea etc most have Union teams.
Even across the river seems no school teams yet again they have Union teams
You might say I am to long in the tooth and out of touch but all these areas are within easy travel distance of Hull.
When I was young if our school did not play the game we went to a youth club and played for them don't think that any youth clubs have a team now.
The present trend is gyms so lets try getting teams out of these like the old work teams.
If the PRO clubs don't try then just going to dry up at school level .

I agree, we need to do far more on schools, but why would one club individually create a plan to develop the game in schools if the other will reap the benefits of it? This is exactly why the clubs NEED to be working together and have a strategy that helps BOTH rather than two poor strategies that help neither. |

You can say whatever you like and as I say the fans will in the end decide what they will do come season ticket time. You seem to be an insider in all of this and its nice to have an official line on things, however if you are from one of the Clubs then you will know, as I do that "No secrets are being shared other than youth development" is a bit rich. You also seem to have a detailed angle on Mr Hudgells movements.
The fact that someone leaked the information may have pre determined the spin that the Clubs were putting on the pill to try and make it all acceptable to us, but its nice to be informed before we get a 'finished article' at least! I will watch with interest when you decide the time is right to release all the information to us the fans. But for now, for once I guess its quite ironic that the customers ain't the last to know!! get used to it, I and probably hundreds of other FC are uneasy when it comes to doing anything with Hull KR!'"
I am at a loss to understand your concern regards the merger of the academies Wilf. After all Hull FC already have the experience and know how when it comes to mergers and the intricate workings thereof so the experience gained previously will obviously be put to good effect when it comes to negotiations with Mr Hudgell. |

First there was wisdom
Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_17490.jpg |

I very much doubt there is anyone in a position of influence at Hull FC now who was there in 1999. |

Maybe we could get Barry Lilley in as a consultant. |

Ha ha, are you suggesting that Pearson is going to merge the Academies and then pick up more than 50% of the cost?
You really do have a downer on his abilities don't you? Did he reject your advances or something?
The guy is a successful businessman and has had a reasonable career in sport, one that keeps getting him opportunities offered, are you really expecting him to let Hull KR have the club over?

He's saying what Hudgell said - I heard him say it too. |

So Hudgell, who is well know for taking the mickey, said he would be taking advantage of Hull FC and people believe it?
Or was this an Official comment I have missed? If it is I apologise and would start to question if Adam Pearson is drinking too much! |

That wasn't my point and I don't have a clue what each clubs spends on their academies any more than you do. My point is that the claim was that the clubs aren't doing it to save money which I don't believe.
As for rejecting pearson's advances, I've never met the guy but I presume you'd be in there like a flash if he offered it to you? |

I have turned him down, twice!!
I have a very good idea what each Academy is spending and I would also say that anyone with a bit of common sense would also realise that when you half your staff, half your players, half your match day travel costs, half your spend on kit and equipment and half your venue hire you end up with around half of your current bill!!
Or are you thinking the new Academy might run two buses still, one for the Hull lads and one for the Rovers lot? |
